“We look back to history to know that the times of tumult will pass, but we also have to move through them in really productive ways…to put things in historical perspective, but also to put things into perspective by helping people take a long-term view.” That’s according to Penny Pennington, Managing Partner of Edward Jones, in an interview with Dr. Lori Esposito Murray of the Committee for Economic Development, the public policy center of The Conference Board (CED).
